The actress will appear in follow-up mini series to The Kennedys.

Katie Holmes has signed up to play former First Lady Jackie Kennedy once again in the follow-up to the 2011 mini-series The Kennedys.

Based on a book by J Randy Taraborrelli, The Kennedys: After Camelot will follow the family as they struggle to deal with the emotional turmoil of John F Kennedy's shocking assassination in 1963.
